On Monday, police said a teacher witnessed a middle school student walking along Hartford Avenue being followed by three males. The teacher pulled over and spoke to the student as a deterrent. The males were reported to have gotten into a gray van and left the area.

Police received a report of a student who felt he was being followed on Tuesday. This incident was reported by a citizen who saw a post about the incident on Facebook.

A late-reported incident involving a grey van at Kilowatt Field was reported on Thursday. A group of males in a gray van were watching juveniles from a gray van. It's alleged that the males held up a weapon as if to show the juveniles.

Police are encouraging children to walk in groups if an adult is unavailable. Parents and children should discuss what routes are being taken and at what time.

Anyone that has witnessed something suspicious should call the Hartford Police.
